Abstract

The organometallic Ru molecular wires 1-3 Ru(PR₃)₄(C≡CC₅H₅N)₂ [(PR₃)₄ = (dppe)₂ (1), [P(OMe₃)]₄ (2), and (dmpe)₂ (3)] show significantly higher conductance compared to their organic counterpart, 1,4-dipyridyl butadiyne (4). CV and UV-Vis measurements and DFT calculations suggest that the high-lying HOMOs of the Ru wires are the key factor for the high conductance.
